Notes
Storage
- Storage will depend in the filling. But wraps and burritos are best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftover wrap or burrito, refrigerate in an air-tight container then enjoy within 1 day or the tortilla will get soggy.
- Don’t overfill the tortilla or it will be hard to roll and it will lose its shape. We recommend using a ½ cup of filling for an 8-inch tortilla and ¾-1 cup of filling for a 10-inch tortilla.
- Warm the tortilla to make it more pliable and easy to roll.
- Be careful with wet ingredients because they can make the tortilla fall apart easily. If using wet ingredients like as beans, use a slotted spoon to scoop the ingredients and tap the spoon on the edge of the bowl to shake off any excess moisture.
